1994 - 1995 As part of an international exchange programme I spent my second year studying at Trent University, Ontario, Canada.

Supervisor and Explainer in a council run hands-on science centre. Explaining exhibits, running workshops and visiting schools.

Data Manager and Web Editor, NERC Centre for Population Biology, Imperial College London, Silwood Park Campus. I managed all the data for a European grassland biodiversity experiment called BIODEPTH, compiling data from eight countries and making data available to researchers. I also assisted with the harvests to collect data.
I maintained and responded to enquiries about the worlds largest compilation of population times series data - the Global Population Dynamics Database (GPDD).
I designed and maintained the centre's (old) web site, coordinated the International Academic Visitor Programme, maintained a database of CPB publications and assisted the Manager and Director as required.
In 2001 I won a BA (British Association for the Advancement of Science) Media Fellowship and researched and designed some of the fossilisation pages of the Walking with Beasts website.

From July 2004 until July 2005 I conducted a survey of the scientific data holdings at BAS and from Sept 2005 until Dec 2006 I worked to identify data collected as part of the Antarctic Funding Initiative.
Current Post
Since December 2006 I have been managing the BAS Archives Service. The service holds data and records from the 1940s and is a scientific and historical resource available to BAS staff and members of the public.
Other Activities
In 2003 I took part in a show performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The Tensile Strength of Cats was performed by Too Many Daves and was a comical sketch show with a science twist.
